No, menopause is a primate-only event in which menstrual cycles become erratic and then cease. As dogs do not have menstrual cycles, they do not go through menopause.

What is the difference in gestation period between different breeds of beef bulls?
Bulls don't go through gestation periods: cows and heifers that have been bred do. Bulls are intact male bovines that are used to breed cows, and can settle as many as 50 cows in one breeding season. Cows are mature female bovines that are capable of having a calf, and typically the definition of cows means that they have already had a calf. Heifers are females that have never given birth to a calf. So, if you asked your question with cows or heifers in it instead of bulls, you would get a better answer. :)
